Fabrication of Silver Nanoparticles Supported on Rice Straw: In Vitro Antibacterial Activity and its Heterogeneous Catalysis in the Degradation of 4-Nitrophenol

To investigate the influence of pH on the size and distribution of silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) as well as the antibacterial activity and catalytic performance of rice straw/silver nanocomposites (RS/Ag-NCs), Ag-NPs were synthesized on the surface of rice straw (RS) with various percentages of Ag-N...
